Nov 16 1948 Israeli foreign minister: "Israel would welcome the creation of an independent Arab State in Palestine" June 15 1949 "our aim is peace, and peace negotiations. We have always declared that we should prefer to see a separate Arab State in that area"

meanwhile Israel was consistently pro two state solution in all these talks

September 18 1948, Progress Report by the UN Mediator found "Arab unwillingness to undertake any step which would suggest even tacit acceptance of partition, and by their insistence on a unitary State in Palestine."

100

July 3 1948 Transjordanian PM: "Our position is clear, and has been proclaimed on every occasion. It is never to allow the creation of a Jewish State in Palestine and to exclude partition. And our object is to cooperate with the other Arab States in her deliverance."

100

it was run by the brits 1920-1948 after the fall of the ottomans. the 1939 white paper: - establish an independent, arab-majority state - limit Jewish immigration to 75,000 - restrict jews' ability to buy land - rejected by Arab reps who thought it didn't go far enough for them

100

This is a constant thing. They rejected an independent Palestinian state in 1939 because it did not go far enough. They rejected anything but an Islamic one-state solution in 1948/1949. Hamas's charter makes explictly clear their goal to kill all Jews. Etc

Arafat only rejected proposals while never giving any of his own

more thoughts, on why comparing this to indigenous struggle is ridiculous and what i hear when people say they're "not anti-semitic"

writing out my take on why people who support the recent terror attacks because "gazans live in horrible conditions" are wrong to do so:

if GPT4 experienced "relevant consciousness" that'd imply re-doing a multiply at the end of your hand calculated output would make GPT4 re-experience whatever it experienced. No— it's just what you experience, and what the pen and paper experience. GPUs ~don't feel.

Yamir Moreno @ymoreno.bsky.social · 07/10/2023

Unlikely that digital computers experience relevant levels of consciousness Computers are v constrained physically. Consciousness dust. If we calculated GPT4 output by hand, the only experience there is ours (relevant) and the pen+paper (irrelevant). Not "GPT4" / "information processing"

Just out "Robustness and complexity of directed and weighted metabolic hypergraphs" (arxiv.org/abs/2310.03623). We propose a new hypergraph-based representation of metabolic networks that captures HOI among metabolites and reactions, preserving all essential information.

Robustness and complexity of directed and weighted metabolic hypergraphs

Metabolic networks are probably among the most challenging and important biological networks. Their study provides insight into how biological pathways work and how robust a specific organism is...

eyesight and touch - the "same feeling" but at vastly different frequency and vastly different shape?

Words are an extremely lossy projection of reality Demanding legibility is telling people to exist in a way that minimizes that loss. To conform to lives that can be easily fully described in a few words. It’s anti-cozy, anti-emergence, anti-life

Hello, Bluesky. What should I post here? Maybe about the livestreams I do every day or two? Maybe about ongoing work I'm doing? Events I'm going to? Let me know what you think...

do you ever get songs stuck in your head? what about "outside" your head? (whistling/humming/etc)
